UPDATES: See the list of winners in the comment section of this post. Thanks to all who joined this mini contest. It was a Thor-ture reading all your humor. Thor-ture to my tummy because of the laughs and to my head because of jolt of migraine trying to decipher some of the entries. :)

UPDATES: Instead of the earlier announced hammer and nails set as prizes, I will be giving out three (3) cool shirts to the best comments on this post. Prizes will be shipped to the winners (as long the delivery address is within the Philippines) And starting today, you may also post Thor humor lines, knock-knock jokes, etc. aside from Use Thor in a Sentence." Please see full mechanics below. Extended until Thor-sday (August 2, 2012) ang pagsali!!!

Today is Thursday or should I say Thor's day (for more than a week now) with the sudden surge of Thor and Chris Hemsworth "enhanced" photos, memes and jokes online.

At first, I was just kinda "liking" every Thor photo shared via Facebook then I started to post comments and the next thing I knew, I was making my own Thor pic. Who says Loki is dead. He's probably just hiding somewhere in the disputed Scarborough Shoal since no one (yes, as in NO ONE, dear Chinese brothers) should be there until an agreement has been forged. Loki could have started this Thor thingie by creating an FB account and posing as somebody named Ashley or Kimmy and posted one of the photos circulating cyberspace today.

Now, here's some of the possible reasons how Thor became viral again after two months The Avengers hit the silver screen:

1. Well, some guys could have gotten envy why Chris Hensworth can look good in long blonde hair and beard while carrying a 100-ton hammer. I tried pasting my face on his body via Adobe and I looked like a clown.

2. This could be an indirect protest of Tobey Maguire fans to Marvel who got a new Spider-Man in

Andrew Garfiled. Why no Spidey spoof photos yet? Probably, they just hate to admit that Andrew is also amazing.

3. It's been raining whole week and we can't do anything but stay indoor. And what's the best way to kill time inside your room? Ruin somebody's life!

4. Or simply, Chris Hemsworth might be Chuck Norris' long lost son to his Filipina girlfriend during the shoot of Missing In Action in Cavite a few decades ago.

Whatever the real reason behind this phenom, who cares! Here's a compilation of some Thor pics that I saw online along with a couple of works I did during that rainy Tuesday (could not say Thuesrday since it sounds Thursday). Also, I am having a mini Thor Hammer Time giveaway. Please see contest details below.

Sorry for the delay guys but I finally have a list of winners after going through the entries

And the winners are:

1. Edna P. - I just love Teacher-student skits. Love ko kasi mga teachers ko and I have a lot of anecdotes almost similar to her entry.

2. RonRacing - His Thor-a Thor-a entry is something I haven't heard of until he posted it. Mababaw man at medyo corny but waiting for Tora-tora zooming in the sky when I was a kid was one amazing moment for me in the 80's.

3. rhea paragsa - Among all entries, this one got me asking others what the heck was entry suppose to mean. Until my niece started singing it to me with accompanying dance steps. And then I said, "yun pala yun!" at natawa na lang ako.
